Danica Patrick or John Wes Townley?

They're both pretty terrible, and only as high in professional motorsports as they are because of money. Danica with GoDaddy and whatever men's magazine she's in this week, and John Wes with his daddy's chicken shop as a sponsor.

I believe they've both managed to complete exactly one Nationwide race without wrecking this season, and it got John Wes pulled from the car mainly because he doesn't have an army of angry men with erect phalluses backing him up.

Average finish 2010 --

Danica 30.5 (note: Danica scored a career high 30th this week to push that up from 34.0. Only 31 cars officially finished this weekend.)

John Wes 22.3

So, which one is worse?

I'd have to say John Wes. I mean, JR Motorsports isn't a crappy outfit, they have Hendrick engines and finished 3rd last year with the donkey but Childress has a better pedigree in the series and his cars should be doing much better. Though Bowyer (who I find overrated) isn't exactly lighting it up either. It's close though, and neither holds a candle to Steven Wallace which I think says everything.

Nemechek isn't in it to make 43rd place money but without sponsors he can't afford a full pit crew or tires and fuel for a 500-mile race.

Joe legitimately wants to run races, but Prism Motorsports fields not one but two cars simply to start and park. It's annoying.

I'm not mad at Nemecheck himself, but at his owner, Phil Parsons, who purposely fields start and park teams. Yes, I'm sure if Nemecheck (Front Row Joe) could find a team that would hire him to run full races, he would no doubt do so.

Nopaycheck.

Great question...

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.

      I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it.

      LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
